Is it practical to bring our bags on the K-D Rhine cruise with us? They are airplane carry-on size.

We are travelling from North to South that day, and I am wondering if we should take the train all the way to Bacharach, stow our bags in a locker, take the boat north to St.Goar, returning to Bacharach by train for the bags. OR if we could just take the bags with us on the boat southward St.Goar to Bacharach.

On a similar note, is a ride on the "historical" boat worth arranging our day around?

We took carry-on size bags on the K-D boat trip from Mainz to Koblenz..no problem doing this whatsoever.

Perfect, thanks! One more detail I can check off my list . . .

I am getting down to ironing out the last few wrinkles in my itinerary! Only a month to go!

I see from the other thread that you are getting a rail pass. If you are planning to use it for the "bonus" river trip, be aware that it is only valid on K-D boats, not on those of their affiliates listed in the timetable.

Don't ask how I know.

Thanks for the tip - I am planning on using my pass. I looked at the k-d website at their timetable, but can't tell which are run by afflilates - am I missing something?

Some of the columns contain "KD-Partner Shippingcompany" (in very small type).

Thanks - I see it now. It appears to be quite a few of their boats! Luckily they are not one of the times I was considering!
